Don't get touchy Moo. It's just that you do such a good job in these cases.

At least I didn't concede 9. There was always that consolation.

Fair point, well made and last night it would not have surprised me one iota.

Except it was his fault that he picked a useless keeper in the first place.

I don't suppose anyone has 01/02 training schedules hanging around? I seem to have lost mine, unsurprisingly.
I swear my Goalies' attributes were dropping like flies.

I've got some that were nabbed from TD way back when. PM your email address and I'll forward them asap. I lost your address when my original yahoo address went belly up.

Oh fook, in finding them I found four pdf files called igea, igea2, igea3 and igea4......
I can see a hiatus on the horizon.

You could have played your centre forward like I did against Milan in the LAC, we only got beat 6-0. Mind that was in the first 30 minutes, I then swapped the keeper with another outfielder and stemmed the tide. having said that you did score a couple.

I hope they're the two DMs you were after for your new team. If not, that's one hell of a toast-ridden keyboard you have.

Odro Opole - A new life
SO finally getting a chance to sit down and see what my new bunch of goits are like and we are 2 pts off a playoff spot, which is nice. With 7 games left. I don't think there's any chance of catching the top 2, but a playoff spot is possible. Well, that is assuming these players have anything about them at all.
As a start, my top scorer, Jim Morrison Lives is injured for a month. Nice.
The squad is scant and blessed with an overabundance of fullbacks. Should my bullet be bit?
Of course not. I go for wingbacks in a 2-3-2-1-2 affair.
A v Tloki: 1-1: Flange
A 93rd minute equaliser from them and 3 disallowed goals for me- this seems familiar.
Sign Dakota Fanny. A GK/coach of 38 years and Ukrainian extraction. A 1st July Bosman.
I also sign another coach, my old Polkowice buddy, Czech It Out. He bears no illwill at me sacking him as my Assman, clearly.
Happily, a keeper returns from a loan spell, giving me 2 GKs- yay! His name is Pussy Lahore and he's 28 and he can be backup until I see how good the incumbent Scarlet Tit is.
H v Cracovia: 2-1: Photosynthesis 2
DMC gets both the goals that shift us up into the playoff position, but 9 points behind the automatic promotion spot.
That may not be a bad thing, as having a tiny squad and no cash may not be the best basis for another tanking in League 1.
A v Hetman: 3-0: Syringe in the Knob ; John Wayne's Biro ; Emil the Detective
Nice win.
Polkowice have been relegated from L1. For shame.
:sheesh: :pops:
Looking at the shambles that is the Polkowice squad, I notice that Caroff Ya Scally is leaving on a Bosman. To us. Hmm.
Another Bozzer in the can for 1st July: Shortbread Faggot a 19yo Scottish AMC.
H v Radzionkow: 2-2: Fluffy Yellow Chick ; Emil the Detective
I feel I'm starting to get to know the players a little better. I've certainly spotted the divas.
A v Orlen (1st): Fluffy Yellow Chick ; Emil the Detective
2 games left. In 4th place, 1 pt ahead of Belchatow. The next 2 games are H against Flota, already relegated, and A v Belchatow....
H v Flota: 2-1: Gettifa Yabassa ; Jim Morrison Lives
Sweet. Even sweeter, Belchatow lose, so we are in the playoffs. Some cash, maybe?
A v Belchatow: 2-0: Flange
We dispose of them anyway.
We get 300k for 4th place and draw Widzew in the playoff. S Gah. I'm pretty sure they're the guys who stuck six past me recently.
H v Widzew: 4-0: Arachnaglobia ; Fluffy Yellow Chick 2 ;Oh, I've Fallen.
Get in there! Totally out of the blue and rode our luck big-style, but yay hay hay and a bottle of rum.
Oh, wait- I didn't want promted straight away....
Incredibly, another GK arrives back from loan- Pere Jack, 24 and a little rubbish. I whack him straight on the list and he is instantly desired by three clubs, which always makes me nervouse- the coaches agree, though, that he is pants.
My directors are delighted with the start I've made. And at least it's 1s and 2s, none of this 5-4 nonsense.
A v Widzew: 0-1 We take a hammering, but it doesn't matter- we're promted!
Gah.
And another two players return from loan- St John's Warped, another 24 yo GK and Policeman's Hum, 25yo DRC.
I then notice that there are 8 incoming Bozzers on their way, only two of which are mine. I cancel one of them, as he looks pure pish, but let the others ride.
500k tv money gives me an 800k tfr budget, but the pickings of interested parties aren't great.
The board expect me to improve the squad this season.
Ok.
I resist the temptation to go back to Polkowice and nab my favourites, who are all "Req".
Goits got me sacked.

I went for too young last time, I think. Fantastic on paper, pants on the park. And the update/patch thing clearly has rumbled the two/three at the back efforts in terms of goals. We'll see. I have wingbacks now, so if I concede a shedload, I know it's not me. On the other hand, no more will I see my 5s and 6s of yore. Boo hoo. Wheeling and dealing will be fun, as I have no scouts and none to employ.
